Labor Day 2013

Grandma Susie and Grandpa Charles were here this weekend!  But before I skip ahead to tell of our most recent fun, here are a few photos highlighting our Labor Day adventures.

Labor Day was cause for huge celebration because lo and behold, Jason was finally HOME!


Golly gee, I sure missed that impish grin!  That handsome feller had definite mischief up his sleeve.  Before you knew it, our crew looked like this...
And this...

And even THIS!  Talia has some pretty mean rappelling hops.

Of course, safety is top priority so we spend lots of time checking and rechecking all our equipment and knots.


Grandma Susie observed from beneath the comfort of her shade umbrella for a while...

...but eventually pitched herself off a cliff too, along with Grandpa Charles.  I guess insanity is contagious.

Back on solid ground, we took a few family pictures on Sunday afternoon.  Annika seems a bit of an afterthought in this one.

Lining up in height order...

And one more chance to say "cheese."

Thanks for coming, Charles and Susie! We love and appreciate you then, now, and always.
